After rebooting my RUT241, i have to repeatedly enter the pin code for the eSim. This makes the ‘auto reboot’ function not usefull. The strange part is that the number of times i have to re-enter the PIN code is different between reboots. This is what happens in detail:
- I travel with my RUT241 in my camper. Sometimes the connection is lost on the way. I then want to (auto) reboot the RUT241
- After the RUT241 is rebooted, the connection is not restored
- When i log in, i see a orange triangle warning symbol next to “SIM Card” in Status, Network, Mobile. When i hover my mouse over the organge triangle, the message is shown that the pin code of the sim card has to be entered.
- I enter the pin code (0000 in this case), and another message is shown that i have to be certain that i entered the right pin-code, otherwise the sim card will be blocked.
- The modem then starts re-initializing, sometimes the connection is restored in the first attempt, but other times the orange triangle warning sign re-appears and i have to enter the pin-code again.
- Below is the log of an instance where i had to (re)enter the pin-code three times before the connection was restored. Please note that the error message that the sim card was not inserted already occurred before i logged in as admin.
- “SIM state changed to not inserted (internal modem)” is clearly not correct: we are talking about an eSIM.
My questions:
a) is it normal the pin code of a sim card has to re-entered after a reboot? If yes, that makes the auto-reboot function not usefull
b) is it possible a pin code of ‘0000’ triggers a bug in the firmware?
c) can i create a script which re-enters the pincode automatically when needed?
By the way: i do not prefer eSims with a pin code, but sometimes thats not my choice.
